I’m sorry, I just have to ask*
*And I realise that not [b]all[/b] new posters do this, but…
When you come to a site as a new person, and you basically introduce yourself by saying something [b]rude[/b], what response are you expecting ?
In a way it’s like coming into a new town and immediately [b]mooning[/b] the residents. What do you see resulting from that ?
One of my favorite posts here about this, from a friend, sums up what we occasionally see (thanks @uncalled4):
[quote]"Why introduce yourself? Ain't nobody got time for that. Just do a psychotic verbal drive by." I mean, these people fling open the door like Kramer on Seinfeld.[/quote]
Then later we see them upset and announcing that they’re leaving, because "nobody’s friendly here."
Just something I’ve been wondering about.
